Button "Back" isn't working

hi guys,
Yesterday i noticed that my "back" button on my S2 wount work,so i tried to fixed it.
Other keys worked perfectly so i thought that can't be hardware problem, must be software,but it wasnt.
I tried the factory reset,but my phone stuck at the samsung logo,so i flashed it again with a new FW...that didn't help for the button,but my phone worked again.Then i wanted to change the menu (right button) to be the back button,but i can't find any working app to do make the change...
Any help,tips and such would help me...if any one had the same problem and fixed him without taking him to the samsung service,please share your expiriance,
thank you in advance...:fingers-crossed:
Try changing your kernel?

Try button savier app.
Taking it to a repair centre might also do the trick.
BTW, it's in your other right.

Mobile network not available

On my Samsung Galaxy S3 (d2mtr) it keeps giving me a "Mobile network not available" error whenever I try and make a call. I can go on the web and social networking apps; download apps. The only thing I can not do is make calls. I looked under settings and saw that "Network Operators" is not available to enter. Any ideas on how to fix this??
EDIT: My IMEI number does in fact show up. Idk what is wrong with this.
EDIT: NEW PROBLEM. I was reading a tutorial about flashing back to stock firmware and it said to downgrade my bootloader. I used the recovery flash method and now I have a black screen. Can't do anything. Turn off, turn on. Just stays black with no response. Someone help fast Please

No sir I can not just stays on a black screen.
Plug it in your wall charger and leave it for 15-20 minutes to charge. Then retry. Maybe your battery is discharged. I've read similar posts. Good luck!
If you've flashed the wrong bootloader or it went wrong then you have a hard brick. Try a usb jig, but probable you'll need a new motherboard.

PC won't recognize the phone.. help plz

I posted the pics of the screen shots of my About phone section so u guys can see what my phone is running...
Anyways, anytime I used to plug my phone into my laptop, it would always give a pop up on my phone with that little USB symbol and I was given the option to do it as media, camera or installer...
I plugged it in today and nothing... my computer doesn't even recognize it at all.
I redownloaded kies... the drivers... I even tried different cords...
And nothing..
It's not my USB plug on my laptop cuz everything else works in that plug....
This happened ever since I updated to lollipop...
I tried unchecking the USB bebugging.... and tried it checked... still nothing...
Any ideas of what could be the issue???
